#RespectTheLine – You can’t undo violence

The campaign sends a clear message that there is no excuse for violence and there are lasting consequences if you hurt someone. It addresses findings from research commissioned by Our Watch, which found that 1 in 4 young people hold attitudes that put them at risk of perpetrating, excusing or tolerating violence against women.

The ad campaign encourages young people, parents and role models to visit www.theline.org.au/respect to find out about the facts, myths, types and impacts of violence; and how they can take action to reject violence. The ad campaign is part of The Line, a national initiative that encourages young people to reject violence and develop healthy, respectful and equal relationships.
